Welcome to E W Burman
Established in 1964, E. W. Burman, Inc. has grown to become a well-known general commercial building contractor in the Southeastern New England area. Founded by Edward W. Burman, Sr., the firm is represented by a team of skilled and dedicated professionals whose years of experience have effectively serviced clients throughout the construction process. It is this blend of construction project management experience coupled with client service that has gained us a respected position within the industry over the past fifty plus years.

Over this time our capabilities have expanded, but we have not lost sight of the fact that our job remains the same and that is to see that your objectives are met: that your job is designed and constructed on schedule and within budget; and that all your quality and aesthetic requirements are fully satisfied.
Our experience has enabled us to become involved in a full spectrum of projects ranging from the simplest to the most complex. We willingly accept the challenges presented by construction projects of any size, shape, and form.

Core Principles
Every project has its own
unique characteristics, and
every approach to design
and construction has its
strengths and weaknesses
Our philosophy is simple. There is no set formula. It is our experience that every project is unique. Every owner has different needs and desires. We begin the process by meeting with you to determine your requirements. Once mutual agreement is reached on the specific project goals, a project manager and team are assigned to work with you. E. W. Burman is a hands-on operation in which you will always be dealing with one of the principals of the firm from inception to completion of your project. We pride ourselves on client service.
We also take pride in the interdisciplinary nature of our firm, offering an atmosphere that is conductive to the free interchange of knowledge by all team members
We believe that the owner should take an active role in the management of his/her project. Our task is to have team members provide the professional management tools and support to achieve your goals in an efficient, expeditious and economical manner. We call this Total Quality Management.
Controlling Costs
Cost is certainly one of the first and most important ingredients for sound project control, and cost control is an essential feature of every successful project. Realistic budgets and careful monitoring of costs during the construction phase are significant factors.
We pride ourselves in providing accurate and reliable cost estimates. We also maintain strong and successful working relationships with all our subcontractors and suppliers.
Establishing Realistic Time Parameters
Another necessary ingredient for sound project control is the ability to develop and monitor sensible and realistic schedules for the design and construction of your project.
At E. W. Burman your project team is always thinking and planning ahead to identify future problems and find ways around them, ensuring that your project is delivered on or ahead of required completion dates.
Ensuring Quality
Not only is it essential to seek out the best balance between cost and completion dates, but it is equally important to assure you that your project lives up to quality expectations. You want to feel secure that you are getting what you are paying for.
It is here that the Total Quality Management Concept comes into focus – assuring you that your project has been finished to all specifications and to your complete satisfaction.
